Product description

Product description
The 12-year-old Loch Lomond is characterised by three different cask types. In addition to bourbon casks, refill and rejuvenated oak casks were also used. Reactivation means that the barrels are refurbished to extend their useful life. This involves scraping the inside to expose fresh wood, which then comes into contact with the whisky again. The STR method (Shave, Toast, Re-Char) was created by Dr Jim Swan. In this process, the staves of the barrels are scraped down to the reddish shimmering surface on the inside and then flamed out, which leads to the caramelisation of the wood. This promotes mild flavours such as caramel, toffee and vanilla in the whisky matured in these casks.
